The principle of virtual power at finite deformation is extended to derive multi-phase field formulations, yielding macroscopic and microscopic force balance equations. The accumulated plastic slip on each slip plane is introduced as the driving force for the ductile damage evolution of that plane, which provides clear physical significance for microscale damage analysis. Within the thermodynamic framework, constitutive equations for damaged crystals are derived, including the macroscopic stress constitutive equation and the microscopic phase field constitutive equation. For theoretically incorporating the temperature effect, a temperature-dependent fracture threshold energy governing damage initiation and a temperature-dependent degradation function controlling damage evolution are proposed to explicitly characterize thermal influences. The main contribution of the developed model lies in the explicit modelling of the temperature effect on damage through a thermally coupled free energy function, along with the rigorous derivation of damage constitutive equations within the thermodynamic framework. For numerical implementation, an efficient and robust explicit algorithm is developed to solve the phase field and deformation field. The comparisons between numerical simulations and experimental results demonstrate the good capability of the proposed model. Based on the proposed model, the influence of temperature on the coupling effect between microplasticity and microdamage on slip planes is revealed.

High-speed photography and Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technology were employed to measure the strain. The experimental results show that under quasi-static loading, the BE intensifies with the increase of pre-strain until reaches 3 %, at which the BE parameter reaches saturation gradually. Under dynamic loading, the BE parameter goes up rapidly before 2 % pre-strain and then reduces continuously as pre-strain increases. Difference in the BE between quasi-static and dynamic loading were investigated by microstructural analysis.

Instead of eliminating Mn segregation, the present work firstly develops a high-strength medium Mn steel with obviously improved impact toughness at a wide temperature range between ambient and cryogenic temperatures by artificially introducing Mn segregated bands to initiate delamination toughening. By combining warm rolling and intercritical annealing, the heterostructure containing elongated Mn-rich austenite bands with a width of ∼7.6 μm and submicron austenite/ferrite matrix was realized. The coarse austenite bands featuring limited mechanical stability preferentially undergo transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) effect upon deformation, inducing brittle TRIP-martensite with abundant C/Mn contents. These TRIP-martensite parallel to the rolling direction encourage the activation of delamination mechanically and microstructurally by serving as the initiation sites and propagation paths for delamination cracks, making brittleness into toughening. The presence of intensive through-thickness delamination cracks regulates the stress state around the main crack tip, consumes energy through the formation of new surfaces, and activates additional TRIP effects around delamination cracks. The pronounced delamination toughening was realized at ∼ -100 °C, benefiting from an abnormal enhancement of impact toughness at even low temperatures. The sustainable TRIP effect provided by austenite grains with distinct morphology, size, and composition further improves toughness intrinsically. Formation of Mn-rich bands furthermore relieves the segregation of Mn to prior austenite grain boundaries (PAGBs), avoiding intergranular fracture that is usually observed in medium Mn steel. This novel toughening mechanism paves the way for developing high-strength material with enhanced toughness at ambient and low temperatures.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":340,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Plasticity","volume":"192 ","pages":"Article 104420"},"PeriodicalIF":9.4,"publicationDate":"2025-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144594746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Under mechanical loading, hydrogen is driven by hydrostatic stress and accumulates at dislocations due to their affinity for hydrogen. However, most stress-diffusion models rely on Oriani’s local equilibrium assumption, which treats hydrogen buildup at dislocations as an instantaneous process. As a result, these models inherently fail to describe the loading rate sensitivity observed in experiments. To overcome this limitation, we propose a fully kinetic formulation in which hydrogen-dislocation interactions are modeled as a diffusive flux driven by the spatial gradient of the normalized dislocation density. The Kocks–Mecking–Estrin equation is used for the evolution of dislocation density coupled with Taylor hardening model. In contrast to classical models, our formulation solves for the total hydrogen concentration as a single species, thereby removing the need to artificially partition hydrogen into lattice and trapped species. The results show that slower loading rates lead to greater hydrogen accumulation at the crack tip. Additionally, pipe diffusion is naturally incorporated by allowing the local diffusivity to vary as a function of dislocation density. We also demonstrate that correct boundary conditions require prescribing equilibrium concentration that account for both stress and dislocation effects, ensuring chemical potential continuity with the far-field lattice.

The key to invoking collective deformation mechanisms is the proper tuning of austenite characteristics through the intercritical annealing process. However, since other metallurgical features are also impacted by intercritical annealing both kinetically and thermodynamically, MMnS are sensitive to minor variations of annealing conditions and plagued by narrow thermo-mechanical processing windows. To overcome this limitation, we propose a high-temperature pre-annealing (HA) strategy that enables strong and ductile MMnS across broad ranges of annealing temperature and duration. The HA process facilitates austenite reversion by enhancing nucleation sites and elemental pipe diffusion through dislocations, enabling austenite fractions exceeding the values predicted by thermodynamic equilibrium. Consequently, superior and stable mechanical properties with yield strength of ∼1200 MPa and ductility up to 50% are achieved. Multi-scale characterizations reveal that this exceptional ductility stems from hierarchical austenite with graded mechanical stability and synergistic activation of plasticity mechanisms—martensitic transformation, dislocation glide, deformation twinning, and stacking faults—to mitigate strain localization. In contrast, the same MMnS without HA process exhibits inferior tensile properties and a strong dependence on annealing conditions.

This reduces the number of nonlinear problems to solve, with cluster responses propagated throughout each group. The thermodynamics-based artificial neural network-extracted features are further processed using local material state clusters to account for history-dependent deformation and evolving microstructures. Additionally, representative volume element simulations with rate-tangent crystal plasticity fast Fourier transform provide reliable datasets for model training.

Specifically, as-built (AB) specimens show higher strength perpendicular to the build direction (BD) than that parallel to the BD at room temperature (RT), while the opposite trend occurs at the elevated temperature (ET, 900 °C). Besides, the heat treatment eliminates the anisotropy of strength at both RT and ET. A dislocation-based damage-coupled crystal plasticity finite element (CPFE) model with strain gradients is utilized to understand the origin of the above anomalous anisotropy. It is found that the transition of anisotropy from RT to ET is attributed to the temperature-dependent dislocation annihilation combined with initial dislocations in AB state. In contrast to the heat-treated specimens without anisotropy, the LPBF-induced residual deformation primarily contributes to the anisotropy at RT, whereas the initial dislocations dominate the anomalous anisotropy at ETs for AB specimens. The CPFE model reveals the threshold temperature to be 600 °C for the occurrence of anomalous anisotropy, which is experimentally validated.
